Transcript

A Gen Z employee caught vaping in the bathroom. Fire. A Gen Z employee lying about how long they went on lunch break. Fire. Don't be afraid of the truth. I was late, I took 20 more minutes. They'll respect you more for being honest. A Gen Z employee who has no life outside of work. I'm indifferent. Dates a coworker. Indifferent. Asks for a raise six months in. Hire. And keep if they perform. Loves the CEO. Hire. Flirts with their company crush over Slack. It's not fire, but it's double dumb. Don't do that. Talks bad about their job drinking at the bar on a Saturday. Emails you at midnight about something that could be addressed tomorrow. Doesn't bother me. And then lastly, do you have any advice for Gen Z employees? Be a man or a woman of character. If I told you I'm gonna do it, if I screwed up, I'll tell you. If I was late, I'll tell you. If it's my fault, I'll tell you. If you're able to have that kind of a relationship, everyone's gonna want you and hopefully you stay at the same place long term and win at the highest level.
